I think scraping your cutlery on your plate is the equivalent of licking your plate.. The foods gone, no need for all of the scraping to get every last morsel of food in your gob!
He thinks my intolerance to food noises is getting out of hand.

Jet washer noise gets right in your head and goes on for hours and hours.
Circular saw - arghhhh!
Chainsaw.
Tile cutting.

Little girls screaming at a frequency so high it physically hurts your ears. Nightmare when parents or nursery assistants don't make them stop.

Someone in the near vicinity slurping tea 😩

I think I have misophonia.

Jet skis on a nice sunny day at the beach.

People sniffing loudly on public transport.

Early morning trains and tubes with men perpetually sniffing, I mean every 4 seconds has drawn me close to going full Michael Douglas Falling Down.
